Reaction Steps

To a solution of (S)-3-amino-1-((1S,2R,4R)-4-(isopropyl(methyl)amino)-2-propylcyclohexyl)pyrrolidin-2-one (100 mg) in toluene (2 mL) was added sodium tert-butoxide (42 mg), acetato(2′-di-t-butylphosphino-1,1′-diphenyl-2-yl)palladium(II) (7.8 mg), and 4-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline (102.3 mg). The mixture was heated at 80° C. for 14 h before it was filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chiral chromatography (OD column, 80/20/0.1 hexane/iPrOH/Et2NH as mobile phase) to afford (R)-1-((1S,2R,4R)-4-(isopropyl(methyl)amino)-2-propylcyclohexyl)-3-(6-(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-4-ylamino)pyrrolidin-2-one [8 mg; MS found: (M+H)+=491.3] and (S)-1-((1S,2R,4R)-4-(isopropyl(methyl)amino)-2-propylcyclohexyl)-3-(6-(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-4-ylamino)pyrrolidin-2-one [18 mg; MS found: (M+H)+=491.3].
